Select the properties of the shortcut by right-clicking it and add an icon to it. To create a shortcut to the application, right-click on the Primary output in the middle window pane and select "Create Shortcut to Primary Output", name that shortcut as CreatingInstaller. Right-click the Input folder created and Add file to it, browse for the Sample.txt file in the Windows Application project we created earlier. It is now time to add the Sample.txt file. Add an icon to the form like in the following figure: You can decorate your form to add an icon to it, that icon will also be required at the time of installation to create a shotcut icon to our application. That means the folder will always be created whenever we run the installer, after a fresh build release. Right-click on the folder, select properties and mark Always Create property to True. The folder will be created just below the Application Folder, name that folder Input. So, right-click on the Application Folder in the File system editor and add a folder. Now in this folder creation logic has to be implemented in the out setup project, so that when the application installs, it has all the pre-requisites required to run the application, like the Input folder and the Sample.txt file. Therefore running the application will show two message boxes, one after another showing the text box text and text from the Sample.txt file. Now we also need this Input folder and a Sample.txt file at the time of installation to be located at the location of the installed application.įor file operations I added the namespace System.IO, needless to specify this thou. I chose to keep my txt file at the startup path so that I could explain how to create files and folders at the time of installation. It could also be "bin\release" as per the project build, and specify the file folder name and file name to read the content. Write a few lines of code just to read the txt file from the Startup path, in my case "bin\debug". Therefore just add a text file, I called it Sample.txt to the "bin\debug\Input" folder, Input is the custom folder I created to place my txt file. In the meanwhile let's add some more functionality to our Windows application, let's read a file and show its output in a message box on button click. The Primary output will be added as shown below, having a type defined as Output. Select "CreatingInstaller", in other words the Windows application project name in the "Add Output Project Group" window, select it as the primary output as shown below and click "Ok". Right-click on the Application Folder and add an output project the output project specifies the project we are creating an installer for, like in the following figure: You'll get to see the Application Folder, User's Desktop and User's Program Menu. Now open the file system editor by clicking on the project and select the option to open the file system editor, as shown in the following figure. The project will be added to the solution. Right-click on the solution and add a new project to your solution like in the following figure:Īnd add a Setup Project by "Other Project Types" -> "Setup and Deployment" -> "Visual Studio Installer" as in the following: Now let's create an installer for the same Windows application. I just wanted to write a few lines of code, so I bound the button's click event to show the text box's text: Decorate the control properties as per your prefer. Thus adding a new Windows Form Application in my solution and adding a text box and button to the default form resulted in the figure as shown below. I gave the name CreatingInstaller to my Windows application, obviously you can have your own. The creation of the Windows application is just for the sake of having one to install. There are many alternative ways to do it.įirst let's create a simple one-form Windows application, having a text box and a button only. In this article I would like to explain a step-by-step procedure to create a Windows application and a setup installer for it in a very simple manner, that is easy to understand and follow. And guess what, they were successful in finding bugs in that too. The driving force for me to write this article is my QC team, who accepts the main application to test and verifies my setup installer with their 100% effort. There are numerous articles I found over the network, explaining how to create a setup project, but some do not work as they say, and some do not have a live example to follow. There are many ways provided by Microsoft to create a setup project for Windows applications.īut when I started to create one, I got nothing but queries and confusion of how to start and where to start.

Rian’s Rolling Stone piece estimated that Mbube and the Lion Sleeps Tonight had earned at least $15 million from its use by Disney in the Lion King alone. The Mbube Lion Sleeps Tonight Controversy The story of Mbube and The Lion Sleeps Tonight might have ended there had it not been for a Rolling Stone Article written by Rian Malan in 2000. The document which Linda probably did not fully understand was then used as the basis for Gallo’s Publishing copyright and control of Mbube and the Lion Sleeps Tonight, allowing Gallo to collect all recording and publishing worldwide Royalties for Mbube. In order to resolve the question of Ownership of the Mbube/The Lion Sleeps Tonight on South African soil, Linda signed away his rights to Mbube to Gallo under a Copyright Assignment agreement concluded prior to his death. Instead, Gallo Records attributed authorship of Mbube and the Lion Sleeps Tonight to a fictitious Paul Campbell which allowed the Record Company to collect Royalties for its own benefit. The Royalties and sales for Mbube and the Lion Sleeps Tonight were unfortunately not passed onto Solomon Linda or his family. Wimoweh or The Lion Sleeps Tonight hit the Billboard charts, and spawned more adaptations by other African and international Artists including The Tokens, Miriam Makeba and Jimmy Dorsey.Įventually Mbube was used by Disney as part of the Lion King soundtrack. Mbube the song was destined for bigger things however, when in 1951, American group The Weavers recorded an adaptation they called Wimoweh, or the Lion Sleeps Tonight, a title arising out of a mistaken attempt at translating the original Zulu chorus into English. Mbube was a hit in South Africa that influenced the evolution of a new choral musical style dubbed Mbube which was popular on South Africa’s mines. Mbube or The Lion Sleeps Tonight as it would later become more popularly known is a 1939 Zulu recording by Solomon Linda and his group The Evening Birds for Gallo Records, South Africa. The Recording, Release and Success Of Mbube It’s an unmatched story of cultural appropriation and exploitation revealing how despite Linda’s Mbube composition became a worldwide phenomenon when it was re-recorded as the Lion Sleeps Tonight earning millions in sales and publishing Royalties for Record Companies and Disney Studios both in Africa and abroad, the Composer of Mbube the original Mbube song on which the Lion Sleeps Tonight was based and his family continued to wallow in poverty until a Lawsuit was instituted over Royalty payments due for Mbube’s use as the Lion Sleeps Tonight was finally settled by Disney in 2006. The sad story of how the song Mbube which became later known as The Lion Sleeps Tonight was stolen from South African composer Solomon Linda and used as the Theme Song by Disney in the Lion King Movie is laid bare in a Netflix documentary The Lion’s Share. 5/11/2023 0 Comments Similar to audacity for macStorage, too, is no longer an issue: the highest-end M1 iPad configurations include terabytes of storage. However, Audacity in principle does support a tablet PC running Windows (including Microsoft's "Surface with Windows 8 Pro" tablet)…Īs of 2021, some new iPads and Macs now share the same Apple Silicon M1 processor so, according to the FAQ answer above, there should no longer be a performance obstacle-iPad should now be more akin to the Windows tablet PC situation mentioned above. Therefore, considerable rewriting of Audacity and its interface will be required before Audacity will work on portable music players like iPod, smartphones like iPhone, tablet computers like iPad or any of the Nexus devices running Android. Also the wxWidgets interface library we use only has limited support for mobile operating systems and small screen resolutions. This requires more processing power and disk space than is available on most mobile devices. However, there is new reason to hope for Audacity on iPad: it appears the technical obstacles cited by the Audacity team for the lack of iPad support are disappearing.Īs of this writing (April 2021), the Audacity FAQ includes the following:¹Ĭurrent versions of Audacity work internally with uncompressed audio to permit high quality editing with a wide range of effects. Also, some would not agree a proprietary product-especially one requiring payment to unlock all features-is actually an “equivalent” to open-source Audacity. I haven’t found another suitable alternative. It may just give you the most amazing and satisfying results.The currently-accepted answer, WavePad, seems to be sporadically unavailable on the App Store (at least in some regions). Other than that, they will definitely get any request concerning about audio needs done. However, you must remember that since they have been purchased at no cost, you cannot the software that you have chosen to possess highly advanced features or sound editing tools, or premium service or customer support in case something should go wrong. Each software has features or attributes that may be best suited to your audio or sound recording and editing needs. They are among the best programs that you can easily find online and download at no cost. This is just a compilation of top ten fantastic alternatives to Audacity that are available across the worldwide web. You can save frequently used settings through Preset Manager Offers more improvement functions for recording from tape or vinyl recordsĪllows you to select and listen to effects real-timeįeatures sample format conversion, anti alias filters, dithering, and noise shapingĪllows fast and easy creation of audio files Has multiple filtering and sound optimization methods This program allows you to record music and edit corresponding audio files, perfect for anyone who is an audiophile. We are now looking at the top 10 best Audacity alternative below. Let's check out other software that can be as good as Audacity. Another downside of this program is that it does not show real-time effects and it lacks dynamic equalizer controls. For instance, it does not support 64 bit VST plug-ins. But just like everything else, there are limitations to this software and not everyone is a fan. It also does not have any time limit and its user interface is so simple that it makes music editing easy and fun. It supports not only Windows, OS X, and Linux, but other operating systems as well. You can download and install the software immediately. There is no need to pay for anything and definitely no need to register. What has made this particular software so appealing to the general users is that it’s free and an open source. I found Audacity is too hard for me to use, does anyone could recommend some good Audacity alternatives ?Īudacity has quickly become popular and has been often thought of as technology's ultimate gift to recording enthusiasts, podcasters, and other music enthusiasts. 5/11/2023 0 Comments Venna panduFruits you should store at room temperature include, bananas, watermelon, pears, papaya. Storing fruits the right way determines their shelf life. So grab your favorite seasonal fruit in the morning before your breakfast or you can have it between two meals as a snack. Fruits are best absorbed on an empty stomach. Fruits should be eaten at the right time to get their benefits. In the winter, you get dates, orange, grapes, and chiku. In the monsoon season, you can add jamun, custard apple, apple, and peach. In the spring, you can enjoy cherries, jackfruit, pineapple, strawberries, and lychee. In the summer season, you can relish mangoes, melons, plum, and papaya. The list of seasonal fruits in India is quite extensive. Unripe fruits are rich in fiber, vitamin C, Potassium, and Vitamin B6. Fruits like green papaya, green mangoes, green banana can also be eaten unripe to boost immunity. Eating those kinds of fruits is associated with a better digestive system. Some fruits are more nutritious when they are eaten unripe. Clean them using your fingers gently, so that the soft and squishy fruits don’t get ruined. You can also add salt or vinegar for more efficient cleaning. Soak fruits in water for some time to remove dirt from the fruits. Must read: Benefits of guava: 10 Reasons why you should eat them often You can also comment below to let us know what’s a particular fruit called in your language.įruits Name in English, Hindi, Tamil, Marathi, Telugu, Gujarati, and Punjabi This little guide tells you fruits name in English, Hindi, Marathi, and other languages you may want to know. With their changing texture and taste, their names have also been changed in different languages and cultures. Fruits have changed a lot since humans first started eating them, watermelon used to be seedy and not fleshy, bananas used to be short and thick, but one thing that remains true is that they are beneficial for our health. Some are juicy, some are crunchy some are green, some are red, fruits come in different textures and colors, but all of them are packed with nutrition. 5/11/2023 0 Comments Shadow warrior 3 priceThat also means it’s not a very complex or robust FPS, but I always knew that all I had to do was keep moving forward if I wanted more action. It gets to the point, and as a result felt more respectful of my time across the roughly four-and-a-half hours it took me to reach the credits than any other game I’ve played recently. You can occasionally go off the beaten trail to find upgrades that improve Lo Wang’s weapons and abilities lightly (effects like increasing ammo or making certain attacks drop more resources), but outside of those few instances you’re only ever fighting or making your way toward another fight.ĭeveloper Flying Wild Hog’s approach to Shadow Warrior 3’s linear campaign is simple but effective. The platforming sections that separate each fight never last very long or get too complicated, and exploration during those stretches isn’t really a thing. In between killing demons, Shadow Warrior 3 generally only gives you one thing to do: run to the next arena full of demons. Every arena you fight in is built around these movement mechanics, turning battles into wonderfully frantic flurries of gunshots and katana swipes. Lo Wang moves lightning fast, able to double jump high above the heads of enemies or quickly dash away from their attacks. Shadow Warrior 3 takes the same exciting approach as Doom Eternal or Titanfall 2, emphasizing speed and maneuverability above all else. Killing demons keeps all of those pesky thoughts about the nonsensical story away. If you were given the opportunity to stop and think about what was happening, you might end up asking questions like “how did Lo Wang survive in a ramshackle shack on top of a mountain?” or “why did this dragon get so big when it was so much smaller at the end of Shadow Warrior 2?” It generally doesn’t slow down from there either, and that breakneck pace is probably for the best. Its very first fights take place on the back of that Earth-threatening dragon, which you run and jump across like an action movie hero. From the get-go, Shadow Warrior 3 makes clear that it wants to be exciting more than anything else. 5/11/2023 0 Comments Windows brightnessFor more information about Microsoft’s support, please see Microsoft’s Support Lifecycle FAQ at The following applies to HP systems with Intel 6th Gen and other future-generation processors on systems shipping with Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 Pro systems downgraded to Windows 7 Professional, Windows 8 Pro, or Windows 8.1: This version of Windows running with the processor or chipsets used in this system has limited support from Microsoft.

Come to find out that Eric had been thinking about Troy for quite a while already for this gig so we called Troy up and he tours with Gilby Clarke from Guns N' Roses and he had just gotten home from a run and was available. I can't do this but what do you think of Troy Patrick Farrell?" and they're friends so essentially Vik suggested his own replacement. He called us and said, "Guys, I'm really, really sorry. What happened was Eric brought in Vik Foxx from Enuff Z'Nuff to do the gig and he was committed to it and we had scheduled a video shoot for what we had planned to be the first single and that's a whole other part of the conversation but Vik was on board to do the band and at the last minute, right before he was supposed to come down to do this, he had a situation arise in his life that he had to take care of and it called him out of the country. How did Troy (Patrick Farrell, drums) get picked up and brought into the fold?Ĭhris: Troy? Oh, the drummer, the blonde guy.Ĭhris: He's hot and we needed someone in the band who was good looking. So, indirectly, David Bowie is responsible for Angels In Vein. So, that was as core as the core band got for doing that show and like Chris said due to extenuating circumstances the show got postponed and didn't happen but that was how we all came together. I had been in a band in 2000, 2001with Stacey and Vik Foxx (drums) called Supercool so I had Stacey do this core band thing with me and we went to Vik and Vik was interested and then we needed a singer and Stacey said, "I know Chris VanDahl." I asked if he would be interested and we talked to him and he yes and he was in town and wants to do some songs with us. I went to her with the idea and she loved it and said go with it so basically I was trying to put a core band together to learn all the songs because Bowie's songs are definitely not easy songs and we had to learn like twenty-seven of them. Due to extenuating circumstances that show didn't happen but it, sort of, brought us all together and that was really the true formation of Angels In Vein.Įric, with everything going on with the Bowie show that you were looking to put together, was that your main focus at the time? What were you doing at the time when you got hooked up with everybody?Įric Stacy: Yeah, basically I had been doing some shows out here since the end of last year with my own guitar player called the Vegas All-Stars and there was a lady out here that was promoting all the shows so when Bowie passed away in January I went to her and said, "It'd be really cool if we could do a Bowie memorial show." We'd get a bunch of rock stars up there and everybody could do a song or two and we'll also have a main band that would learn all the tunes. But, the last time he called he told me that he'd been talking with Eric (Stacy) and Eric was putting on a special concert honoring David Bowie, right after Bowie had died and they asked me if I was interested in singing for it and I told them yes because I was actually in town at that time. One thing led to another and Stacey Blades and I have been friends for quite a while and he calls me from time to time and says, "Hey man, lets do this and lets do that." and up until recently I always had to say no because I had a contract, I'm going out of town, I'm doing this, I'm doing that. So, I reached out to him and asked if he was interested and the next day he sent me thirteen songs that he'd been holding on to and that's, kind of, how this thing started. But yeah, we started writing this record pretty quietly about two years ago and it was something we started to do because I'd been performing as Steven Tyler in the Legends in Concert all over the world and I wanted to do something that was me, reestablish my identity and get back in touch with what I love about music. We've written and performed together, on and off, since before we were twenty-one. Taz and I are pretty much childhood friends. Chris, my understanding is that you and Taz (Todd Anthony, guitar) had things going first and then the rest of the guys joined the fold, correct?Ĭhris VanDahl: Yeah, Taz and I were dating first. I wanted to start off with the formation of the band. Charred Walls Of The Damned's Richard Christy. |
